The not-so-fine tuning argument.

Try explaining this to a theist. All of a sudden stuff starts to become inconsistent. On atheism we won the lottery, on theism there is no lottery.

There are several parts that, in general are better off removed from the body for it to function well. We have a quadrupedal skeleton, despite being bipedal. We have almost nothing separating the wind pipe from the digestive pipe, resulting in a choking hazard. We have a blind spot in our eyes that the brain has to fill in for itsself. We only have two sets of teeth, despite being able to live for several decades. I could probably go on.
